Heard on the lunchtime news about 500 odd people stuck in three trains in a snow bound USA for over 14 hours! -- Roger T 700 ft up in Mid-Wales It took us 14 hrs to get from Bristol to Edingburgh some years ago. The train was delayed ue to snow and freezing conditions. After a prescribed period of delay the Railway Co provided free buffet and tea etc. It was interesting walking back to our carriage carrying a cup of tea in each hand in a rocking carriage when the lights went out - total blackness!
